Buttermilk Pie – Ooey and gooey, just the right amount of ‘sweetness” and a touch of lemon to set it off. This is an old, old recipe, still delicious today. My family loves it.
1 1/4 cups sugar
3 tablespoons flour
4 eggs, whisked
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 stick butter, melted and cooled
1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
pinch of grated Nutmeg
Preheat oven to 425*F
Combine the flour and sugar and mix well. Stir in the eggs, and buttermilk.
Add the cooled melted butter, vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Add a pinch of grated Nutmeg. Pour into the unbaked pie shell. Put the pie in the center of the oven and bake at 425 in a pre-heated oven for 15 minutes, then lower the temp to 350, and bake for 40 more minutes. Cool completely. Store in the frig.
I love buttermilk pie! We add toasted unsweetened flaked coconut for a lite twist on this recipe. I got this from my Grandma who was from Augusta, GA.
Karen,
My daughter was commenting on Sunday that the pie would be good with coconut! I will have to try that. Thanks! 😀
thank you for the recipe of butermilk pie. I lost mine some time ago. Now I can make it again.
Yay! I hope you like it.
